Chapter 368
Fang Ming was planning to get in touch with several girls from the Eastern Ocean District who might become Magical Girls.
But Xiao Chun and Aurora spoke up almost simultaneously, "Let us do it!"
"..."
Seeing the wariness in the eyes of the two girls, Fang Ming was speechless.
He really wanted to say that reality wasn't that cruel. He wasn't some womanizer or some kind of heartthrob, so how could so many girls like him?
Seeing that the two insisted, Fang Ming said no more.
Letting them make the contact is fine; it will make things easier for Fang Ming and reduce some trouble.
"Alright, I'll leave this to you guys. I'll make a call, then wander around a bit. Call me if you hear anything."
Fang Ming said helplessly, intending to leave from the rooftop.
Xiao Chun suddenly noticed the blind spot and immediately asked, "Who is Brother Fang Ming going to call?"
"Stella," Fang Ming said without Sky Screen, "Since she can control the thoughts of high-ranking military officials worldwide using only a region's Magic Network, wouldn't it be just as easy to use the entire world's Magic Network to find the hidden high-ranking members of the Aurora Society?"
"I plan to try this method to completely eliminate the Aurora Society, so it won't come out to cause us any more trouble."
Fang Ming explained his reasons.
Xiao Chun and Aurora exchanged another glance, and once again said in perfect unison:
"We'll leave after you finish your call!"
"..."
Meeting their gazes, Fang Ming instantly understood what they were thinking.
His smile was helpless, even tinged with bitterness.
You two, stop doing this!!
No way!!!
Stella could, of course, see that her reflection in the Sky Screen was tempted.
Putting aside herself in the Sky Screen, even Stella in reality was somewhat attracted to the Xiao Bai creature in the Sky Screen.
Stella has never experienced kindness from others since she was sold by her parents.
The researchers at the base treated Stella purely as experimental material. If Stella hadn't been strong Emotion Seed and suppress those monstrous magical powers, her fate would probably be no different from that of Xilisi Stella the Sky Screen.
It might even be worse.
Family ties, care, and friendship... none of these things existed in that cold base.
It wasn't until Lesos's voice reached her ears that Stella finally felt the love of an elder for a younger person again.
She is someone who longs for love; otherwise, she wouldn't have awakened the Mind Magic that brings her 'love'.
Stella also knew that the love brought by Mind Magic was all fake, and that no one in this world, except Lesos, would love her.
She believed in Lesos, believed that Lessoth would take her away, and believed that she would leave this world and be with her sister Lesos forever.
But...
Just at this moment, Xiao Bai in the Sky Screen showed his care for Stella.
Whether this care was genuine or not was no longer important to Stella. Regardless of Xiao Bai's purpose in saying those words, at least for Stella now, this care was real.
She desperately wants to see Xiao Bai in this world, to find out if she shares the same thoughts as Xiao Bai in the Sky Screen.
But after walking a few steps back, Stella suddenly remembered that Xiao Bai seemed to have run off with Xiao Chun and Aurora.
As for why it ran away...
Have no idea!
Xiao Bai guarded her memories fiercely, unlike her counterpart in the Sky Screen, who took advantage of the other's weakness to see Xiao Bai's memories clearly.
In real life, Stella knows almost nothing about Xiao Bai!
She still can't understand why, even though she controlled Fang Ming's body, she was able to know Xiao Bai's situation!
So Stella was actually completely baffled about some of the things happening in the Sky Screen.
Now that Xiao Bai has run away, Stella has absolutely no idea why.
However, through analyzing the plot of Sky Screen, Stella vaguely guessed some things.
Like most viewers, she simply lacked conclusive evidence to prove her point.
Tsk, if I had known it would turn out like this, I would have just peeked at a little bit when I sealed Xiao Bai's memories last time...
Stella felt a little regretful.
But as if what she was thinking about came true, just as she was thinking about Xiao Bai, her phone suddenly vibrated, and the caller was... Xiao Bai!
"... Yuan Bai?"
"Ah, Stella, there's something I need to ask you."
Xiao Bai on the other end of the phone cut to the chase, asking directly, "You must have seen that scene in the Sky Screen where you used the Magic Network to manipulate high-ranking military officials, right?"
When Xiao Bai heard that Stella was asking about serious matters, she felt a little annoyed for some reason.
However, seeing the Sky Screen, Stella quickly dismissed her displeasure and replied:
"I saw it. What are you planning to do?"
"Could we use the Magic Network to find the last remaining members of the Aurora Society who have hidden themselves?"
Xiao Bai asked.
Stella smiled upon hearing this, "What a coincidence, we were thinking the same thing. I was just planning to do that, but I didn't dare to do it without your permission."
"Agreed."
"..."
"I believe you wouldn't do anything outrageous right now, since we have the same goal, right?"
The goal here refers to 'surviving the Demons's clutches'.
It's not hard to tell from the plot in the Sky Screen that the Demons's attitude towards the Witch is gradually shifting from neutral to hostile.
Lesos and Stella, they too must find a way to survive the Demons.
From this perspective, everyone shares the same goal.
Furthermore, Stella in the Sky Screen has already shown kindness towards the Magical Girls, so Xiao Bai is willing to believe in the real Stella.
Upon hearing Xiao Bai's words on the other end of the phone, the slight dissatisfaction that had previously surfaced in Stella's heart vanished without a trace.
She recalled Xiao Bai's word 'believe,' and then thought of the attitude of Xiao Bai and the others towards her at the council meeting that had previously decided her future.
Stella was momentarily speechless.
The brown-haired girl took a deep breath and suddenly said in a cold voice:
"Don't think that saying nice things will make me stand on your side. I'm not the same person I am in the Sky Screen."
"Yes, of course I know, but... at least for now I can trust you, right?"
"...Tsk." Stella bit her lip and said, "...Let me know when the operation is scheduled, but just so you know, don't blame me if we can't find anyone from the Aurora Society."
"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."
Xiao Bai hung up the phone.
Stella stared at her phone in silence for a long time. After a moment, a smile appeared on her face that she herself was unaware of, and she walked briskly towards her room.
"..."
"..."
Why are you all looking at me like that?
After ending the call and deactivating his transformation, Fang Ming turned around and saw Xiao Chun and Aurora looking at him with eyes he didn't understand, and even a little frightened.
That look sent chills down his spine, and he couldn't help but shiver.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chun exhaled, inhaled, and then exhaled deeply several times. After doing this, she said softly:
"... It's started again, just like before."
"Uncle, how did you do that?" Aurora looked at Fang Ming with equal complexity. "... How could you say such... so cheesy things without batting an eye?"
Fang Ming: "??"
What are you talking about?
Why can't I understand what I'm saying all of a sudden???
Where did I say anything cheesy? I was just like myself in the Sky Screen realm, believing in Stella, wasn't I?
This is perfectly normal!
Seeing Fang Ming's blank expression, Xiao Chun lowered her head and muttered:
"Let's just lock him up... no, no, no, maybe we should just stop him from speaking altogether..."
"Wait, wait, wait! Xiao Chun, your eyes are terrifying right now! Aren't you and Aurora supposed to be meeting with Kazama Reiko and Tottori Shiori? Hurry up and go!"
Fang Ming, who suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, had a surge of survival instinct and hurriedly urged Xiao Chun to hurry up.
Xiao Chun took one last deep breath, glared at Fang Ming, and said:
"Little Red and I will be right back. Brother Fang Ming, don't run around!"
"Okay, okay, I won't run around. Even though I've become like this, I'm not a real child anymore."
Fang Ming responded helplessly.
Xiao Chun almost rolled her eyes out, muttering, "That's not what I meant... never mind."
Meeting new Magical Girls is a very important task, and we really shouldn't waste any more time here.
Moreover, they won't be in contact with Magical Girls for very long, probably less than a day.
In such a short time, Fang Ming shouldn't have attracted any attention from girls... right?
Xiao Chun hesitated for a moment.
Volume 4 <Magic Autumn> Movie and Season 3: Chapter 399 Not even a day has passed!!
Fang Ming didn't wander off.
He didn't try to pick up girls either.
He simply strolled around Eastern Capital like any other ordinary child, appreciating the different 'exotic customs'.
Although the world is now a unified whole with no longer national boundaries, each region still has its own unique characteristics.
For example, there are many traditional Eastern-style buildings in the Central Continent District, while many places in the Eastern Ocean District are also full of strong Japanese style.
It gave Fang Ming the feeling of returning to his past life, strolling through the Sakura Country.
Moreover, unlike the rather petty country in the previous life, the Eastern Ocean District in this life, perhaps because it is closer to the Central Continent District, has a more grand style and does not have the headache of 'atmosphere to watch out for', making the overall atmosphere more relaxed.
Fang Ming walked down the street, feeling quite relaxed.
Xiao Chun and Aurora went to approach the Magical Girls in the Eastern Ocean District. They didn't want Fang Ming to follow them, so Fang Ming had nothing to do for a while and didn't know where to go, so he could only wander around the streets of the Dongdu.
However, compared to the relatively chaotic Americas District, the order in the Eastern Ocean District was quite good, and Fang Ming didn't encounter any trouble that morning.
It wasn't until noon that Fang Ming encountered a tiny... minor problem.
"Little brother, what are you doing here all alone? Where are your parents?"
While strolling near the park, a girl with long black hair approached Fang Ming and asked him a question.
With his path blocked, Fang Ming looked up at the black-haired girl and winked.
Because of the angle, Fang Ming didn't see the other person's face at first glance; instead, he saw the prominent features on her chest.
So big...
Fang Ming had this thought upon first seeing the other person.
